Earning their title of "Best
Food Presentation and Service," the French Students Association offer a variety of
French foods, including the
popular French bread. Photo

Clearly the tallest booth belongs to the Vietnamese Students Association; unfortunately they had to cancel their
planned martial arts demonstration.
Tough Decisions
Mouths watered as people
came to the Fall International
Food Fair held at the UC
back patio. All in all, 19
groups presented a variety of
international cuisine at low
prices to _^___
MW%
hungry students.
While
some organi-
z a t i o n s
presented
full meal
plates for a ^^^^^^^™
low $2.00, other organizations
appealed to the "sweet teeth"
in the crowds with French
pastries, Baklava, and the
like.
As if the combination of
low prices and hungry students wasn't enough, live entertainment attracted people
from afar. The ethnic entertainment included a Drum
Dance from the Korean Student Association, a Jazz Band
"Room 2," singers Lani Imperial and Rollie Pamilar
from the Filipino Student Association, live entertainment
from the Venezuelan Student
Association, and a cultural
fashion show from the Pakistan Student Association.
That all the organizations
worked hard was clear by the
judges' inability to readily
choose winners in the three
divisions. The French Student Association won the
"Best Food Presentation and
Service Award," the Indian
Students' Association won
the "Combined Performance
■■■■■■■■ Award" and
the Columbian Students
Alliance won
the "Best
Booth Set
Up and Dec-
orations
Award.''

Winners received public recognition, as well as engraved
trophies.
The International Food
Fair — World Fest '87 was
sponsored by the International Student Organization,
co-sponsored by the Daily
Cougar, and funded by the
Council of Ethnic Organizations. From the smiles of
amusement abundant at the
Food Fair, its success was apparent.

hungry students wasn't enough, live entertainment attracted people from afar."
